Jay, I'll get to that BCR piece over the w-e. In the meantime, this should tide you over. Here's an excerpt of a roundtable discussion article on Terabit Routing from Americas Network Magazine. Enjoy, Frank C. Excerpt follows: _____________________________________________________ Terabit routing — the technology is easy to dismiss as overhyped vaporware. Many offerings are still prototypes at best. Internet providers — access and backbone — are still sorting out gigabit networking needs. Current networking demands don't necessitate blazing, terabit infrastructures. On the face of things, terabit routing looks like a technology that's being discussed well before its time. Then again, Internet traffic is skyrocketing. As access technologies such as DSL and cable modems "up" the backbone ante, gigabit speeds may not seem so impressive after all. Moreover, as access speeds increase, so do demands for applications. Those bandwidth-hungry multimedia apps also are ready to push out the boundaries of the backbone. America's Network recently convened a panel of some of the most influential people in networking today to discuss the business and technology case for terabit routing and switching applications. Moderating this panel was AN's Internet editor, David Kopf. Participating were: • Chris Baldwin, vice president of marketing at Argon Networks Inc. (Littleton, Mass.) • David Bernstein, president and CEO of Pluris (Cupertino, Calif.) • Joe Furgerson, director of product marketing at Juniper Networks Inc. (Mountain View, Calif.) • Andrew Greenfield, product marketing director for the service provider infrastructure group at Cisco Systems Inc. (San Jose, Calif.) • Harry Lalor, director of wholesale network services at PSINet (Herndon, Va.) • Robert P. Marschall, product manager at AT&T WorldNet Services (Bridgewater, N.J.) • Pushpendra Mohta, executive vice president at TCG Cerfnet (San Diego) • Zbigniew Opalka, vice president of engineering at Nexabit Networks Inc. (Marlborough, Mass.) _____________________________________________ The entire article can be found at: americasnetwork.com
